For hospitality to exist, it must be both offered and received. Nobody can be hospitable if someone else doesn't have a need. Jesus sent this large group of followers out not to become powerful and hand out free lunches, but to enter with nothing and allow themselves to be cared for. What an odd way to introduce yourselves. It's unlikely that many in our modern world would be comfortable with so complete an abandonment of material goods.
